is there such a thing as "Vegan jello?"

because I know that gelatin is made from bones…

and I was wondering if there was such a thing as vegan jello… or do I have to give up this jiggly treat?

Answer #1

PETA told me it came from bones and hooves…

and I read it somewhere online.

and regardless of whether its the bones or connective tissue, its still gross to think about…

Answer #2

Where do you think gelatin comes from??

It’s not from the bones, but it is extracted from the connective tissue of animals.

Answer #3

no way or at least I dont think so I mean come on but theres a lot other flavors in jello so you dont have to give it up unless you dont like it

Answer #4

Answer #5

Well in england its vegan anyway, if it’s not then you will be able to buy/make it so it’s suitable for vegan’s you can buy everything for vegan’s now!

Answer #6

I love jello… but now that I know that its mad eout of ground up animal bones… and that makes me feel funny to eat it…

so is there an imitation gelatin that is vegan?

Answer #7

oh dear God…I am NEVER eating jello again!

Answer #8

I don’t know how jello can be vegan in England - it’s made the same way there as it is here, and all gelatin is an animal byproduct.

What you want to look for is something called “agar-agar”. It’s made from seaweed and actually sets much firmer than gelatin, so if you use it in a recipe keep that in mind.

You can make your own jello using 2 tbsp of agar-agar powder with a litre of fruit juice.

Answer #9

Yes it is made from bones- actually the take it from the marrow of bones- it is derived from the collagen inside animals’ skin and bones

Answer #10

wikipedia or anything can tell you just do a web search for gelatine and bones
